New Beginnings: Ladislav's Journey to Friendship and Courage
Ladislav stál pred veľkým, starým múrom.
Ladislav stood in front of a large, old wall.
Bol nový žiak na škole.
He was a new student at the school.
Dnes bol jeho prvý deň.
Today was his first day.
Slnečné lúče bojovali s hustou hmlou nad močarinami.
Sun rays were battling with dense fog over the marshlands.
Toto miesto bolo tajomné.
This place was mysterious.
Petra, ktorá žila v tejto oblasti už dlho, si všimla Ladislava.
Petra, who had lived in this area for a long time, noticed Ladislav.
Bola zvedavá a chcela ho spoznať.
She was curious and wanted to get to know him.
„Ahoj, volám sa Petra!
"Hi, my name is Petra!"
“ veselo zavolala.
she called cheerfully.
Ladislav sa len placho usmial.
Ladislav just gave a shy smile.
„Ahoj,“ šepol.
"Hi," he whispered.
Petra videla, že je nervózny.
Petra saw that he was nervous.
Rozhodla sa byť jemná.
She decided to be gentle.
„Poď pozrieť, kde je naša trieda,“ povedala.
"Come and see where our classroom is," she said.
Cestou do školy kráčali okolo mokradí.
On the way to school, they walked past the wetlands.
Hmla sa vznášala nad vodou.
The fog hovered over the water.
Bolo to trochu strašidelné, ale aj nádherné.
It was a bit eerie, but also beautiful.
Petra začala rozprávať príbehy o močarinách.
Petra started telling stories about the marshlands.
Ladislav počúval.
Ladislav listened.
Pomaly sa cítil lepšie.
Slowly, he began to feel better.
„Prečo si sem prišiel?
"Why did you come here?"
“ spýtala sa Petra.
Petra asked.
Ladislav váhal.
Ladislav hesitated.
Potom ticho povedal, „Sťahovali sme sa.
Then he quietly said, "We moved.
Bojím sa, že tu nikoho nepoznám.
I'm afraid I won't know anyone here.
Chcem si nájsť priateľov.
I want to make friends."
“ Petra ho chápala.
Petra understood him.
„Neboj sa, ja ti pomôžem,“ uistila ho.
"Don't worry, I'll help you," she assured him.
V triede boli všetci hluční a hraví.
In the classroom, everyone was noisy and playful.
Ladislav sa cítil stratený.
Ladislav felt lost.
Petra ho predstavila deťom.
Petra introduced him to the children.
„Toto je Ladislav.
"This is Ladislav.
Je nový,“ oznámila.
He's new," she announced.
Niektoré deti sa začali s ním rozprávať.
Some children started talking to him.
Bol stále trochu nervózny, ale snažil sa.
He was still a bit nervous, but he tried.
Po škole sa rozhodli ísť znova k močarinám.
After school, they decided to go to the marshlands again.
Petra ukázala Ladislavovi svoje obľúbené miesta.
Petra showed Ladislav her favorite places.
„Toto je naše tajné miesto,“ povedala a ukázala na malý ostrovček uprostred vody.
"This is our secret spot," she said, pointing to a small island in the middle of the water.
Ladislav sa usmial.
Ladislav smiled.
„Je to krásne,“ povedal.
"It's beautiful," he said.
Sedeli spolu a rozprávali sa.
They sat together and talked.
Petra bola všetečná a pýtala sa na Ladislavov starý domov, jeho záľuby a sny.
Petra was inquisitive and asked about Ladislav's old home, his hobbies, and dreams.
Ladislav sa postupne otváral.
Gradually, Ladislav opened up.
Rozprával jej o všetkom, čo ho trápilo.
He told her about everything that troubled him.
Petra počúvala a povzbudzovala ho.
Petra listened and encouraged him.
„Máš pravdu,“ povedal Ladislav, „Bál som sa, že ma nikto nebude mať rád.
"You're right," said Ladislav, "I was afraid that no one would like me."
“ Petra sa na neho usmiala.
Petra smiled at him.
„Ja ťa mám rada.
"I like you.
A to je začiatok,“ povedala.
And that's a start," she said.
Vďaka Petre Ladislav našiel v sebe odvahu.
Thanks to Petra, Ladislav found courage in himself.
Postupne sa spriatelil s viacerými deťmi v škole.
Gradually, he made friends with more children at school.
Už sa necítil sám.
He no longer felt alone.
Vedel, že má priateľku, na ktorú sa môže spoľahnúť.
He knew he had a friend he could rely on.
Na konci leta, pri poslednom dni školy, Ladislav stál na okraji močarín.
At the end of summer, on the last day of school, Ladislav stood at the edge of the marshlands.
Hmla sa pomaly rozplynula a slnko jasne svietilo.
The fog slowly dissipated, and the sun shone brightly.
Už sa nebál.
He was no longer afraid.
Petra stála vedľa neho.
Petra stood next to him.
„Som rád, že sme sa spoznali,“ povedal.
"I'm glad we met," he said.
Petra sa usmiala.
Petra smiled.
„Aj ja,“ odpovedala.
"Me too," she replied.
Ladislav vedel, že našiel skutočných priateľov, a s týmto pocitom sa začínal tešiť na novú kapitolu svojho života.
Ladislav knew he had found true friends, and with this feeling, he began to look forward to a new chapter in his life.
Hmla nad močarinami bola teraz pre neho symbolom tajomstva, nie strachu.
The fog over the marshlands was now a symbol of mystery, not fear.
A vedel, že s Petrou po boku zvládne všetko.
And he knew that with Petra by his side, he could handle anything.
